Daniel Radcliffe's film choices post-Harry Potter showcase his incredible acting range and willingness to take on strange roles. From playing a magical dead body in Swiss Army Man to a villain in The Lost City, Radcliffe's versatility shines in diverse genres. Radcliffe excels in unexpected roles like a drug smuggler in Beasts of Burden and a comedic musician in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.

Daniel Radcliffe is one of the most interesting and impressive actors of the modern era, and these 10 strange Daniel Radcliffe movie roles perfectly show off his acting range. Although Radcliffe is most popular for his role in the Harry Potter franchise, he has appeared in all kinds of interesting films since then. While some of these movies are incredibly strange, they have the benefit of showing off all the wacky different ways that Daniel Radcliffe can act.

Daniel Radcliffe started out as a child actor,...

Chicago – It’s a simple concept. A man is stuck on an island, and has run out of hope. A dead corpse washes ashore and starts farting. The farts are so frequent that the man rides the corpse like a jet ski. The man is “saved”? Oh yes, and the corpse is portrayed by Daniel “Harry Potter” Radcliffe.

Rating: 3.5/5.0

In one of the wildest and most original ideas to come along in film culture in a while, “Swiss Army Man” is a “one joke” concept that does a bit more than just expectorate gas. The journey that the man and his corpse go on becomes important enough to change a few lives, and no matter which astral plane the actions of the dead body are coming from, the way he is able to save a dying man becomes the most important point. This is a buddy comedy for the ages,...

Chicago – In what truly must be one of the most original and odd ideas for a movie in awhile, “Swiss Army Man” is opening in Chicago this week, and features Daniel “Harry Potter” Radcliffe as a dead corpse that helps a man survive. This scenario was concocted by writer/directors Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan.

These dudes are the “Two Daniels,” and have been creative partners since they were post-grads (story below) and have made their mark this decade in music video, receiving two Grammy nominations. They made a groundbreaking interactive short film in 2014 called “Possibilia,” which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, and went hugely viral with the video “Turn Down for What” (for DJ Snake and Lil John). “Swiss Army Man” is their first feature film, and they added another Daniel (Radcliffe) to the mix, while creating a debut that – despite its inherent weirdness – will certainly make a mark.

After its critically-acclaimed debut at the Sundance Film Festival this January, where it won the Directing award for first-time filmmakers Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, A24 Films will bring the unique Swiss Army Man to theaters this summer. Today, the studio has debuted the first trailer and poster, which shows that this movie is unlike anything you'll see all year. The song "Montage," featured in the film and heard in the trailer, is composed by Manchester Orchestra and performed by stars Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe.

A wholly original, enormously entertaining, and deeply heartfelt look at what it means to be human, Swiss Army Man is the feature film debut of acclaimed music video directors Daniel Scheinert and Dan Kwan (collectively known as Daniels, and responsible for the beloved "Turn Down For What" video, among many others). Bursting with limitless creativity in both form and content, Swiss Army Man goes...
